Save the Internet!

Hopefully you've heard about the Net Neutrality debate happening right now. Net Neutrality suffered a defeat when the House Energy and CommerceCommittee voted down the proposal, but now, Net Neutrality is moving to the Senate. Net Neutrality is being called the Internet's "First Amendment", and we should all be pushing our senators to back the Net Neutrality proposal, and educating them about what it means. If we don't it could mean giving telcos ridiculous power over how we use the web.

You can learn more about what could happen if Net Neutrality fails in the Senate by watching this video from savetheinternet.com:

Everyone should be contacting their senator about this issue. I don't often post about this type of thing, but I felt it was important enough to bring up.
